Glenmorangie A Tale of Tokyo is the latest installment in the distillery’s annual limited edition series, following the success of Cake Story, Winter Story, and Forest Story. This unique expression is a testament to Dr. Bill Lumsden’s fascination with Japanese culture, fashion, and cuisine.
Inspired by the vibrant and multifaceted city of Tokyo, this whisky is crafted using Mizunara oak, a highly prized Japanese wood known for its distinctive flavor profile. This rare wood imparts a complex array of flavors, including spicy pepper, bitter cherry, and coconut, which harmonize beautifully with the classic Glenmorangie notes of citrus, almonds, and marzipan.
The result is a truly exceptional whisky that offers a captivating sensory experience. The nose is a tantalizing blend of sweet oak, orange peel, and incense, while the palate delivers a harmonious balance of spicy pepper, bitter cherry, coconut, and citrus. The finish is long and satisfying, with lingering notes of almonds, marzipan, and a touch of oak.
Glenmorangie A Tale of Tokyo is not only a remarkable whisky but also a cultural experience. Its unique flavor profile makes it the perfect pairing for traditional Japanese cuisine, whether it’s sushi, sashimi, or tempura.
